Answer:

In nature, there are 3 common states.

Solid, gas and liquid.

The solids have the atoms really close to each other and in fixed positions, so they have a defined shape, the gases have the atoms far away from each other and are really free, so they only can have a "defined shape" when are inside a closed container. And the liquids have the atoms close to each other but are free, those can take the shape of open containers, for example, water in a glass.

Now, the natural state of mercury is the liquid state at room temperature(you can see this in a mercury thermometer, for example.

And of course, depending on the temperature and pressure this state can change, for example, if the temperature is low enough, the mercury will take a solid-state.

Kingda Ka has a maximum speed of 57.2 m/s. Determine the height of the hill on this roller coaster. Explain to get full credit,
kodGreya [7K]

This question involves the concepts of the law of conservation of energy, kinetic energy, and potential energy.

The height of the hill is "166.76 m".

<h3>LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY:</h3>

According to the law of conservation of energy at the highest point of the roller coaster ride, that is, the hill, the whole (maximum) kinetic energy of the roller coaster is converted into its potential energy:

Maximum\ Kinetic\ Energy\ Lost = Maximum\ Potential\ Energy\ Gain\\\\&#10;\frac{1}{2}mv_{max}^2=mgh\\\\&#10;h=\frac{v_{max}^2}{2g}

where,

  • h = height of the hill = ?
  • v_{max} = maximum velocity = 57.2 m/s
  • g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

h=\frac{(57.2\ m/s)^2}{2(9.81\ m/s^2)}\\\\&#10;

<u>h = 166.76 m</u>

Answer:

Explanation:

The inclined plane

An inclined plane consists of a sloping surface; it is used for raising heavy bodies. The plane offers a mechanical advantage in that the force required to move an object up the incline is less than the weight being raised (discounting friction). The steeper the slope, or incline, the more nearly the required force approaches the actual weight. Expressed mathematically, the force F required to move a block D up an inclined plane without friction is equal to its weight W times the sine of the angle the inclined plane makes with the horizontal (θ). The equation is F = W sin θ.

The lever

A lever is a bar or board that rests on a support called a fulcrum. A downward force exerted on one end of the lever can be transferred and increased in an upward direction at the other end, allowing a small force to lift a heavy weight.

The wedge

A wedge is an object that tapers to a thin edge. Pushing the wedge in one direction creates a force in a sideways direction. It is usually made of metal or wood and is used for splitting, lifting, or tightening, as in securing a hammer head onto its handle.

The wheel and axle

A wheel and axle is made up of a circular frame (the wheel) that revolves on a shaft or rod (the axle). In its earliest form it was probably used for raising weights or water buckets from wells.

Its principle of operation is best explained by way of a device with a large gear and a small gear attached to the same shaft. The tendency of a force, F, applied at the radius R on the large gear to turn the shaft is sufficient to overcome the larger force W at the radius r on the small gear. The force amplification, or mechanical advantage, is equal to the ratio of the two forces (W:F) and also equal to the ratio of the radii of the two gears (R:r)
